Hi guys, I think the 4.version of this tournament was a success, so now I am hosting version.5. I will try to see if its possible to get 64 players for this one, but if it's not filled by 16.december, then I will cut it down to 32 players, and the first 32 who signed up will get those spots. The reason for the long deadline is that I am going on a weeks vacation in the start of december, and I don't want to start the tournament before that, and also it probably will take a bit of time to get 64 players for this, if it's even possible at all, but lets try
Put down your score when signing up, I will use those scores to seed the players, when I make the games for round.1. The players will be split into groups of 8. In the following rounds, the groups will be made based on the performance of the earlier rounds. The highest scoring player gets seed 1 etc.. Each group will play 10 games, and the games will come in just 1 batch (so premium players only).
In round 1 you will get 1 point for a kill, and 3 points for the win, and if you do a clean sweep (kill all 7 players on the same turn) you will get a bonus of 5 points. The points do carry over, but in round 2 the points double (2p for a kill, 6 win, 10 sweep), and in round 3 it will double again and, and so on. (I did this because I wanted every game played to have an impact on the winner of the tourney, but even if you have not done good the rounds before, you could have a shot to turn it around and win, because of more points to play for). 4 players from each group goes through to the next round.
Taking the objective does not count as a kill/kills. If 2 or more players are tied, the tiebreakers are as follows : 1.Most kills 2.Most wins 3.Tiebreaker match between the players.
Tiebreaking rules for seeds : 1.Place in group 2.Most kills 3.Previous Seed
GA medal competition is as follows: The winner of the medal is the player who gets the most sweeps in the first 2 rounds. And a sweep is killing all 7 players on the same turn, its not easy getting a sweep, but it happens a few times each time I'm hosting one of theese tournaments. If there is a tie after the firste two rounds, then I will make a tiebreaker match for the medal. If there is 0 sweeps in the first two rounds (we are talking 120 games), and I find that really unlikely, but then the competition would just continue in the 3.round.
